Running Horse
Why is the patter of a horse running in successions of 3, but they have 4 hooves?
The sound of a horse running, goes 1 2 3, 1 2 3, 1 2 3, instead of 1 2 3 4, 1 2 3 4. Do two hooves hit the ground at the same time?
Of course, a horse has 4 hooves. Generally, most breeds have 4 gaits. The first gait, the walk, is 4 beats of each leg individually picking up and hitting the ground at separate times. The second gait is the trot. It is a 2 beat gait where the diagonal legs hit the ground at the same time. The canter is the 3 beat gait. It takes the front leading foot to hit the ground, the opposite pair of diagonal feet, and the last leg to complete the 3 beat gait. A gallop is a 4 beat gait that separates the middle beat of the canter.
